Attendance: 9,000. This was a close fight. Young Montreal jabbed Bushy's left eye from the first round and eventually closed it by the fourth. Graham carried the fight to Montreal throughout and the pair fought a torrid last two rounds before the decision. Utica Daily Press

From the Detroit Free-Press, 22 September 1922 (Herb Goldman). "From the outset Asher was outboxed by the more experienced Montreal..Continued landing of Montreal's left to the head had Asher's brain in a whirl when he came out for the eighth (round), and when he tried to force the fighting he was met with another shower of lefts." Finally, Asher was floored and took the last several numbers of the count while on his right knee. He could have arisen before the ten-count was completed, but would only have received more punishment.
